Here is another card with just a little stamping. I have been creating a least 2 cards each day, and I think my MOJO is slowing down. It is another one with a funny picture. What is it with purple -- I can't seem to take a good picture.

I love this DP, and I saw that the Stampin' Royalty Challenge was a color challenge -- Elegant Eggplant, Rich Raspberry, and Pale plum. I knew I could put together a card with not much stamping. I decided to use Mercy's Sketch too -- 'cuz I thought it would show off the DP really well.

I have been trying to do more bows with buttons, but I think I need to practice a little more. Small bows seem to be more difficult for me. (Does anyone have any hints?) Put some thick ribbon in my hands and I can make a beautiful bow. I think it is from "back in the day" when I did a lot of floral arrangements. And Christmas tree toppers -- I love doing those big loopy bows.

In the beginning I CASEd (Copy and Share Everything) a lot, which is perfectly fine -- I encourage it. If you want to copy one of my cards to give to someone go right ahead, that's why they are here. If you are a Stampin' UP! demo and would like to use my card for a class or workshop that's OK too. Just please do not submit any of my original work to any contest or publication.

If you do find inspiration from one of my creations send me a email or leave me a comment. I would love to see your creation too. :o)
